All true!! Join us this weekend❤️

July Market has me feeling like we’ve all finally hit our stride. We’ve settled in to our places + duties + vibes, prep feels easy, the camaraderie feels effortless…we MISS each other month to month!

Our little Milford Collective has seen babies born, knees replaced, we’ve covered for each other when someone is off at the lake or watching a soccer game…we all just love sharing our creativity with the world.

Market has single-handedly been the biggest and most unexpected blessing in this whole schoolhouse endeavor. The previous owners had time for hobbies like woodworking and drawing and pottery…for us, the basement was thousands of square feet of unused space, just begging us to come up with something. We did + we love sharing it with you each month!

We hope you’ll join us this weekend. We can’t wait to welcome you!

Friday + Saturday, 9-2 both days, and remember, we are OFF in August!

I appreciate our shoppers so much - they have the best eye and really great collections!

I started collecting Ozark souvenir pottery many years ago when it could be found for fifty cents at a yard sale. Prices have gone high now as they are fairly rare.

This Mexican made pottery was sold alongside Route 66 and at tourist destinations across the south. When I lived near Branson MO. in junior high and high school, I saw it everywhere, often filled with bright geraniums or petunias. But, as with most flowerpots, they eventually got thrown out when it got "old" and garden decor changed!

So when I spotted some at The Milford Schoolhouse this past weekend I was stoked! I tucked the two small ones I found in the middle of my collection, on my entry table. They stack nicely! (Zoom in!)

Thanks to Brenda at JB Knacker- Brenda Schwager for stocking them!
